All Kim Deal fans should have this record. No, they require it. Her sister Kelley has similar tastes, a similar style of writing. Those who enjoyed Last Splash and Pod should dig this... "Nice" sounds like Last Splash-era Breeders covering Siamese Dream reject/b-side "Spaced"... and it's wonderful. A lot of this wouldn't sound out of place on earlier Pixies records... Kelley's vocal delivery sounds an awful lot like Frank Black's at times, which makes for an interesting twist for those intimate with the Pixies. Fondness for open ringing chords and straight-from-the-moonlit-beach reverb are unabashed, as is the penchant for out of tune surf guitar solos.

Great album. "Tick Tock" is such a great song. Bonus points for Kelley namedropping Jerry Reed in "Head of the Cult".
Any Honey Tongue/Josephine Wiggs Experience tracks to post?
Unforntunately not... I've got some great Breeders boots I can up if you're interested...
Saw the JWE open for Lucious Jackson years ago... they were better than good.
Oh dip, I meant to go to that JWE show but couldn't make it. Of course that was the only time they played Mpls.
